Georges Clemenceau on religion

“Not only have the ‘followers of Christ’ made it their rule to hack to bits all those who do not accept their beliefs, they have also ferociously massacred each other, in the name of their common ‘religion of love,’ under banners proclaiming their faith in Him who had expressly commanded them to love one another.”

— Georges Clemenceau, In the Evening of My Thought (Au Soir de la pensee), chapter on “Gods and Laws.”
